Oh, I would love this book. I can so relate to being obsessed with gardening. As someone once told me, gardening is cheaper than therapy:)

I think I would love that book. Have you read "Founding Gardeners" yet? I loved it, and depending on how much you like reading about history, you'd probably like it, too.

I love winter since it gives me the luxury of time to read books. You see I would rather be outside in my garden when the weather is nice. Please enter me in your drawing.
